How Color Diamonds Get Their Color

I wish my mistakes were as beautiful!

Well, not exactly mistakes but the theory behind the color in colored diamonds does tell us that even impurities can make beautiful diamonds even more tempting. So when Mother Nature blesses a diamond with impurity, it becomes a colored diamond, one of the most beautiful and precious rocks on earth. A nitrogen impurity makes diamonds yellow, boron makes a diamond blue, extreme pressure gives a diamond brown, red, pink and purple hues and natural radiation gives a diamond green tint.

Wow! If only extreme pressure in life could make us that beautiful! No, no. This was sincerely about diamonds I do not intend to do philosophy here. I love diamonds and everything about them – material girl… thinking uh?
